As noted a while ago, StyleCop 4.4 was due about now and many of you know I am a huge fan of StyleCop which has become open source under the MS-PL license, by means of a CodePlex project. Microsoft will continue to manage the StyleCop project, and Microsoft will be responsible for creating and releasing official signed builds. However, they will also take code submissions from the community.

So StyleCop 4.4 Beta 1 is now available as an installer and source code for download from here. This release provides full support for C# 4.0 syntax, and also provides integration into VS2008 and VS2010. StyleCop 4.4 comes with a number of improvements over 4.3, but also introduces a few breaking changes. Please NOTE all existing custom rules will need to be redone for 4.4.
